This is a summary of college only using two pictures; expensive as hell.
That’s my Sociology “book”. In fact what it is is a piece of paper with codes written on it to allow me to access an electronic version of a book. I was told by my professor that I could not buy any other paperback version, or use another code, so I was left with no option other than buying a piece of paper for over $200. Best part about all this is my professor wrote the books; there’s something hilariously sadistic about that. So I pretty much doled out $200 for a current edition of an online textbook that is no different than an older, paperback edition of the same book for $5; yeah, I checked. My mistake for listening to my professor.
This is why we download.

I wanted to make a post to share how schools in the UK are treating the coronavirus. I want to point out the fact that we can’t wear masks is NOT MADE UP. We have been told to not wear masks and I can’t explain in words how frustrating this is for me including other students. COVID 19 ISNT A JOKE. Our school doesn’t seem to realise the risk they are putting all students in especially when we aren’t permitted to wearing masks. This makes me, including others heavily worried about how things are going to work out. I want to put out that I DO NOT feel safe returning back to school in any shame or form because one of us out of 1,500 students may have the virus.
PLEASE REPOST THIS BECAUSE WE NEED OUR VOICES TO BE HEARD. WE DO NOT FEEL SAFE AT ALL ESPECIALLY WHEN THIS PANDEMIC IS KILLING THOUSANDS. I don’t care who you are but this could save many lives including teachers.
I also want to point out that the city I live in has the MOST coronavirus cases because our Mayor didn’t look into it AND I DO NOT FEEL LIKE I AM IN SAFE HANDS.
Thank you for coming to my rant

Happy Pride Month, everyone!
Also, in some schools (like mine), they actively degrade students who look out for themselves and their mental health, while encouraging students who overwork and push themselves to hard to be more unhealthy.
here’s a huge fuck you to schools that overwork their students and make them feel like shit. teens are human too.
My counselor once told me to make sure I wasn’t doing things to distract myself from the boredom rather than try to sate it. I feel its one of the most important things he ever said to me.
When I’m distracting myself from the boredom, I read or game excessively so I don’t feel the emptiness of boredom. It’s a short term thing, and it only staves the boredom as long as I’m doing the thing.
When I’m sating myself from the boredom, I pursue things I am genuinely interested in and so find myself feeling fulfilled and happier for a longer period of time. Even if I stop doing it temporarily, I don’t immediately fall apart as I would with the distraction.
